Investigating female identity in the modern world, Destiny of Rebirth is an experimental Yue opera based on a romantic lyrical poem from the 1700s. Written by Qing dynasty woman poet Chen Duansheng, the original work tells the story of a young woman who disguises herself as a man in order to enter the world of court politics alongside her lover.

As well as blurring gender boundaries, the Shanghai Yue Opera Group’s avant-garde production blurs the boundary between stage and auditorium, inviting the audience to move among the performers and experience the plot from the perspective of those involved, in a fully immersive encounter.
